A bit about me
I like to make the most of London’s restaurants, theatres, galleries and museums and am often out and about for meals, visiting the latest exhibitions, taking in a concert, play or show. If not that, I am often in the Pilates studio or just wandering through London, getting my steps in and avoiding being underground. I’m also hostage to the whims of a beautiful, but wilful, cocker spaniel so can usually be found in her company outside of work.
Experience
I’ve worked in UK pensions for 35 years across different disciplines, including operational, administration, technical compliance, policy, investment and communications. I am an experienced trustee secretary and have also been a pension scheme trustee in my time.
This breadth and depth of experience and perspective allows me to work with different trustee boards to determine and achieve their strategic objectives, appoint and manage their advisers, oversee their day to day operations and their projects all the way through to their end game and wind up and ensure the best service and outcomes for their members, no matter what stage of its journey the pension scheme is at.
